Installfest "Services" is an experiment by [[User: Bseklecki || Brian A. Seklecki]] and [[User:trodgers | Ted Rodgers]] to provide high performance Linux Distro Install and Update FTP/NFS/HTTP mirrors for use at the Installfest event.

The services run on CMU Hardware Resources and prevent the need for WPLUG attendees to consume Commodity Internet (commercial upstream Internet Connectivity).

NOTE: WPLUG doesn't officially endorse or support the distros provided on Install Services.

1) Install the following file into directory ''/etc/yum.repos.d/"

[http://digitalfreaks.org/~lavalamp/wplug-updates.repo Fedora Core 6 i386 YUM Repo Config File]

Note: To ensure that the local WPLUG / CMU repositories are utilized instead of the default Redhat / Fedora for all yum(8) functions, always prepend the command "--disablerepo=updates"

2) Update the available RPM database YUM maintains
'''# yum update'''

3) Update your system:
'''# yum check-update'''
'''# yum upgrade'''

== Updates the Mandriva Linux 2007.0 Free i586 ==

2) Instruct the URPMI system to update its database of available updates:
'''# urpmi.update WPLUGUpdates'''

3) To automatically select available updates and install them ("update your system"):
'''# urpmi --auto-select'''
